A Time for Daffodils

It is prime time for Daffodils around here.  Everyday has its mandatory viewing and smelling.  Whether it is on a cloudy night just before a thunderstorm…

or just one by one in personal encounters with perfection.  Here are some of the best of this year’s crop so far.

      Ahh, what sharp eyes you have. That will surely be the subject of a future post 🙂
